It wasn’t that long ago that Atomfall was released, and now, we’re days away from its first DLC content. The Wicked Isle DLC is set to release on 3 June, and developers Rebellion have released a trailer to tease its themes.

Yes indeed, in case you missed the tease last week, the Sniper Elite developer’s newest IP, the survival mystery, Atomfall, receives its first expansion on Tuesday 3 June. The Atomfall Wicked Isle DLC will see players travel to Midsummer Island.

Atomfall Wicked Isle DLC

Rebellion has revealed that it draws on the folk horror inspiration in the game. The trailer has a haunting narration, with new enemies, locations and weapons being shown. And, is that an upgraded metal detector? Rebellion will also be adding new endings for the main game too!

Speaking about the DLC on the Atomfall website, Head of Design at Rebellion, Ben Fisher, says:

"Midsummer is located close to the Windscale Atom Plant and as a result the levels of infection in both the people and environment are higher than on the mainland. You are going to meet new enemy factions including pirate bandits and infected druids. To help you survive there are new weapons to be found on the island including a devastating Blunderbuss shotgun, a new bow, cutlass, daggers and the Beekeeper's Staff. You will also be able to acquire new skills which will aid you on your quest as well as an upgraded metal detector which will enable you find even more loot caches."

Helpfully, Rebellion has shared how to get to Midsummer Island. You need to talk to the boat-keeper who can be found on the jetty in Wyndham Village (the central area of the game). He will also provide you with information about the island and your first lead (Atomfall’s story points are carried out via investigative ‘leads’).

I loved my time with Atomfall, and said as much in my review. I am ready for more content and time in Wyndham. Bring on Tuesday for more Atomfall goodness.

Are you excited for the new DLC release?
